From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Arthur W. (Nick) Arundel, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Accounts used solely for blatant self-promotion may be blocked indefinitely without further warning.

[edit] Note

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Friends of the National Zoo article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. DS 04:30, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Are you related to the Nick Arundel about whom you are writing? RJASE1 Talk 04:07, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

We want to know because Wikipedia requires articles to be written from a neutral point of view, and we suspect based on your editing choices that you may have a conflict of interest with the subjects you write about. Please let me know if this bothers you because we're not out to get you. YechielMan 02:53, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
